At Gettysburg College in spring 1971, a group of students, faculty, and community members, under the direction of a seminarian intern, staged a performance of the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar. It ran into unforeseen production problems, but against certain odds became a rousing success. It has never been forgotten by either the performers or the audience.
For Gettysburg's 2016 Reunion Weekend, Archives Assistant Devin McKinney gave a presentation on the production in Mara Auditorium, Masters Hall. This was followed by a panel reuniting many of the original performers and planners.
